RQ help with Java search Tool

[enanito]

I am trying to create a Site Search Tools, in Java. It is aimed to search
documents (stored in an Archives folder) that are in a specific web site,
by looking for the Author or the Keyword. I am wondering if anyone could
help me out by telling me what I should read or look for in regards to
accomplishing this task.

Thank you.

A search engine library written entirely in Java is Lucene
<http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/>.

As an alternative, you could put all (author, keywords, article, date,
....) records (one document = one record) into a regular database with
a full text index on the relevant columns. Then all you need to do
queries are SQL statements. Here's how it works with MySQL:
<http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Fulltext_Search.html>. To do the queries
in Java use the java.sql package of the runtime library.
